The reality is, parents don't get a lot of choices when they opt to put their children in group care as the provider can only do so much with multiple children in care. Parents and providers needs to realize what is realistic when it comes to caring for several children at one time... and unfortunately, rocking babies to sleep isn't realistic.
I don't recommend getting into the habit of asking parents how to run your business... you need to find out what works best for you and your group and then that becomes your routine. Parents shouldn't have a say.
